Not in a good way.

The series is his contemporary SF series, set in a very near future, as climate change starts getting obvious and the Gulf Stream starts getting flaky.

The first in the series is called Forty Days of Rain. (I love one of the series' threads, intensely dislike one of the other ones, and adore the hopeful science/buddhism/neo-transcendentalism.)

DC is a tidal estuary with the drainage of a paved over wetlands, and Mother Nature always, always wins.
